Maricopa Colleges Work to Address Remedial Needs

About 60 percent of incoming students at the 10 colleges in the Maricopa County Community College District test into at least one remedial, or developmental-education, course. These classes, for people whose skills are not ready for college-level work, are offered in math, reading and writing.

Mesa Community College provides outstanding transfer and career and technical programs, workforce development, and life-long learning opportunities to residents of the East Valley area of Phoenix, Arizona.
